षोडशयोगाध्यायः
अत्र लग्नेशकार्येशयोरित्थशाले सति चेदत्र लग्नेशेन कार्येशेनोभाभ्यां वा चंद्रो मुथशिलं करोति तत्कम्बूलम् ॥
Here the lords of lagna (rising sign) and of the matter are in ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect). Then the Moon may make ithasala with the lagna lord, or with the lord of the matter, or with both. That is kambula (the Moon supporting the link of two planets).
Simple meaning: Kambula: the two lords are in ithasala and the Moon links with one or both.
अत्र कम्बूलयोगे भेदोपपत्तौ स्वगृहोच्चावस्थितिरुत्तमोधिकारः स्वहद्दाद्रेष्काणनवांशावस्थितिर्मध्यमोधिकारश्शत्रुनीचगृहावस्थितिरधमोधिकार एतत्त्रितयाधिकारराहित्यं समोधिकारः ॥
Kambula ranks: own sign or high point is best, own small parts is middle, enemy or low sign is lowest, none of these is equal.
यदाह यादवः ॥
Kambula grades: Moon and both lords in own or high sign, very best; lords in own small parts, middle; without these, lower; low or enemy sign, lower…
हीनं समं हीनतरं मध्यममेवञ्चन्द्रस्य लग्नेशकार्येशयोश्चाधिकारगवेषणया कम्बूलमुत्तमोत्तमादिषोडशभेदभिन्नम्भवतीति ज्ञेयम् ॥
Kambula has sixteen kinds, found by the ranks of the Moon and the two lords.
